1 TEXAS STATE TEACHERS ASSOCIATION

2 You have more to offer your child than you think. Thanks to your hard work and sacrifice, your child is enrolled in a Texas public school a learning environment that can lead your child down the path to college and a high paying job. Unfortunately, too many kids fail to understand the value of education. Last year, over 29,000 Hispanic students in Texas dropped out of school. Overall, our state ranks 38th in the nation for the number of students who complete high school. Now here s the key the kids who go the farthest are the ones who have parents that get involved in their education. Because your child s success does not depend on the number of years you finished in school, but rather on what you teach him from your heart. In this brochure you will find ways to get involved, both at school and at home, because you re the key to your child s success. Some kids may find school difficult, but they ll find life without an education even harder. Studies show that kids who go on to college earn $1 million more in their lifetime than kids who drop out.

4 Being involved in your child s education doesn t mean you have to catch the school bus with him. Here are a few simple steps to help you get involved in your child s education and get your child on the path to success. 1. Talk to your child s teacher regularly. 2. Encourage your child to behave at school. 3. Be clear and direct in your expectations of your child s teacher. 4. Let the teacher know about anything happening at home that could affect your child s performance at school. 5. Attend parent-teacher conferences at least once a year. 6. Participate in a parent-teacher organization.
